I'm sure I'm not the only one salivating at the idea of a dual, 64-bit processor workstation. So what if its a mac. It's a dual, 64-bit processor workstation! Off the shelf!
Ahem.
Now that's out of the way. It wouldn't be a good idea for a work desktop, since several of my Novell apps are still solidly in Win32-land. Also, connecting to our very own Novell environment is dodgy at best from a Mac, especially the bits I need to get at in my role as local deity. So no, no G5 for me at work.
Home though... except for that ^!$%^! budget, I'd be tempted.

The Dual 2 GHz model is down to $1999 or $1799 with an edu discount. I'm done being devil's advocate, but the G5 is totally hot.
